Min and max dates

Hi all.

I have a table like this

EIDFROMTO
A2017-12-212019-05-07
A2018-05-082018-05-08
A2018-05-092018-07-31
A2018-08-012019-09-30
B2018-04-032018-07-27
B2018-08-272019-01-24
B2018-08-272019-07-31

 

and I would like the result look like this

EIDFROMTO
A2017-12-212019-09-30
B2018-08-272019-07-31

 

My coding skills are limited, is there anyone who can guide me here, please?

Hi, Do you want to display Min or Max From date ? I see that you are displaying Min From date for EmpId A and Max From date for EmpID B. Could you please clarify.

Create a table/pivot with EID as the dimension; Min(FROM) and Max(TO) as expressions/measures.

Sorry, I was unclear. I want Min FROM date for the last unbroken date range, which for B also happens to be Max FROM date.

Thanks, but wouldn't that give me 2018-04-03 for B which is not the date I want?

Hi 

 

Please have a look over the attached qvw file.

 

This might solve your problem.

 

Thanks

Thanks, but that's not really what I'm looking for. Max for B should be 2018-08-27.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks again for your efforts, but it's still not really the solution I'm looking for, I have hundreds of IDs and thousands of rows in my table.
